ok Im really confused. THis guy claims hes selling a 5800. He has a pic of the card, but it doesnt look like the hairdryer. It looks EXACTLY like the 5900 ultra oem HSF. Did nvidia make 5800's with that heat sink design as the one on the oem 5900?

    ha never mind. The non ultra 5800 uses the same hsf as the 5900 ultra...... in this case anyway

    Not all of the 5800 ultras had the hair dryer. In fact, the cards that you can still find without the non-conventional heatsink fan are steals right now, what was once considered the premadonna is now imo the dark horse. They are faster than 9700 pro's, in some cases cheaper, and they don't have the insane "innovative cooling solution". Anyways... good luck with your card.
